PURPOSES : Lots of criticism such as over/duplication investment, inconsistency of the policies among local governments and national plans etc. has been aroused due to the policy of supply-driven construction for transportation facilities. Recently, according to the environmental-friendly transportation policy, the investment of railroad has been expanded gradually, however the duplication with existing road facility makes it difficult to construct railroad. Thus it is necessary to evaluate the interrelationship between new project and existing facilities in the planning stage. However the method and the criteria for analyzing the duplication and over-investment of projects are not established in the manual, thus the feasibility of these projects are carried out from the economic point of view. METHODS: First, It reviewed about interrelationship criteria(domestic, overseas) and proposed implications and this study directions. Next, It developed the methods of evaluating independency, competitiveness and complementarity. RESULTS : In this study, the methods of evaluating independency, competitiveness and complementarity etc. are suggested to analyze the interrelationship between transportation facilities. The case study was carried out to examine the applicability of the methods. CONCLUSIONS: The methods raise rationality of decision-making compared to existing one. In the future, these methods are introduced into the manual of pre-feasibility study and feasibility study, more efficient decision-making and investment are expected.

Facilities Management(FM) System is widely spread GIS applications introduced in local governments. Over the last few years many local governments in Korea have developed facilities management systems, especially for underground facilities(drinking water and sewerage) and road management systems. The concept of Standardized Facilities Management Software(SFMS) was developed to minimize the duplication of efforts in local governments. Recently local governments try to change their direction to Urban Information Systems(UIS) which can comprehensively manage their information project carried out by each sector. Therefore this study suggests a method for introducing a Standardized Facilities Management Software to help constructing urban information system. This method is expected to prevent double investment, reduce project time, minimize the risk of project failure, and activate information projects.
